FALL SEMESTER
Registration in Closed
We are no longer accepting new dancers to the group. Several classes are very full. However, we are still accepting male dancers since we are ALWAYS wanting more. We will not take a male dance if we have to take a female dancer as well. If anyone wants to join that has, or is, a female dancer, please let them know we open registration again in January.

Reserve Parking
We ask that these first two parking spots be left open and available to Pedro, Jessica and Reeses. Sometimes we stay very late and leave the studio alone. Sometimes we may come during another class. Either way it would be nice if we didn't need to walk far to our vehicles especially if we are alone.

Sin Fronteras is a show hosted by us (Alegre) and Sol Ballet Folklorico in Fort Worth. The show brings together groups from all over the DFW area, Texas, and further. Our last event was in 2019 and we have not had one due to the pandemic.
This year we bring it back on August 9th with 15 groups total. The shows will be at the Moody Performance Hall in downtown at 1:00pm for the matinee with more children groups, and 6:00pm with the adult companies.

Water!
SUMMER WEATHER IS HERE and we want dancers to stay hydrated. It's great to see so many people with their own mugs and bottles, but sometimes people forget them. We no longer "sell" water, but we need bottled water available if someone didn't bring their own. If you happen to be at the store, we would appreciate a case of water donated to the group. Please bring the smaller bottles for a quick drink and less bottles left behind.
